Editor’s Note: In Episode 5 we played the awesome song “Are You Dead or Undead”, and we loved it so much that we asked Amy to tell us a bit about her song:

I was always a big Buffy fan. One night after watching an episode, I just jumped up and started singing “Are You Dead or Undead?” It sounded like something the Scooby Gang would dance to at The Bronze.

I went downstairs to the piano, tweaked the chords and was done. I mean, what more is there to ask? ARE YOU DEAD OR ARE YOU UNDEAD? was slated to be part of a BUFFY-inspired stage production in the early 2000’s that didn’t happen. So it’s on my solo album…
